Sam purchases five goldfish and an aquarium with a rectangular base. The aquarium measures twenty-four inches long, eight inches wide, and ten inches tall. Sam fills the aquarium with water so that one inch of space remains at the top. How many cubic inches of water are in Sam's aquarium?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The dimension of the rectangular base aquarium is

The gap between top and water level is i.e. water is filled up to a height of

Now, the dimensions of the water in the aquarium is

The volume of a rectangular base prism is

The volume of water in the aquarium is

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.

this is false ^.^ lol
